Couple of new products available soon.

1. A PTT switch based on the Turret Mic design qsy.g7ufo.radio/turret-ptt

2. SOTAcat - a CAT control unit for #elecraft #kx2 and #kx3 for use with #sota and #pota.

3. A new colour (shown below) for the Turret Mic, Turret PTT anf #k6ark mic kit.

Always wanted to build a TeensyMaestro for my #flexradio. The new board by Simon, N0VE (with firmware updates by Len KD0RC) made it much easier.

I designed a case for it which supports a VESA compatible mount.

I’ve added a limited run of the kit to my shop (shop.g7ufo.radio/collections/...).

If, like me you’ve followed the development of the Teensy Maestro for #flexradio by Len (KD0RC) and Simon (NV0E) then you may have seen they’ve released a new PCB and BOM.

I’m hoping to be able to put a kit together for this and have an expression of interest form shop.g7ufo.radio/pages/expres...

Unfortunately the RTLSDR part of the #hackergadgets board for my #clockworkpi #uconsole was faulty.

A quick email to Vileer and a replacement arrived in a few weeks. I’ve just fitted it today and it works. 🙌

I seem to have had a few orders while I was away on holiday for the last week!

This morning I dispatched my 200th Turret mic 🎤 #kx2 #kx3 #trusdx #qmx #pota #sota shop.g7ufo.radio/collections/...

My #clockworkpi #uconsole arrived this week (just after my #hackergadgets SDR extension board).

I fitted a #raspberrypi CM5 in it and compiled PiHPSDR to connect to my Pluto+ which I use for #qo100.

This thing is 🔥

Just arrived! The @n6ara.bsky.social TinyMIDI n6ara.com/product/n6ar... will be using this for impromptu #cw practice (and eventually QSOs on my #flexradio.

Based on the hard work of Adam, K6ARK I designed a PCB which does all the work of the connections and designed a case for it.

I think it looks like a Turret from the game Portal, hence its name.

For the last few months I’ve been offering the K6ARK super-compact microphone as a kit over in my shop: shop.g7ufo.radio/products/kit...

My plan was also to provide assembled versions as well but I found the soldering too fiddly for any sort of speedy assembly.

After 32 years as a ham I finally completed my first #pota activation!

Thanks for everyone who hunted me at Kielder Water (GB-1285).

Gear was my trusty #elecraft #kx2 with wire antenna suspended on a SOTABeams tactical mast. Ran off battery and happily chucked out 10w.
